JUVENTUS manager Massimiliano Allegri has denied claims he has agreed a deal to take charge of Chelsea next season.

Allergri has become one of Europe's most coveted managers following a successful first season in charge of Juventus, where he guided the club to the league title, Coppa Italia, and Champions League final.

The Italian is now on a shortlist of contenders to replace Guus Hiddink at Stamford Bridge this summer.
